Lang Co, Vietnam: Laguna Golf Lang Co, one of Vietnam’s premier golfing destinations, has been designated as the preferred venue for members of the Taiheiyo Club, one of Japan’s foremost golf organisations.
Known for its 18 exclusive courses and a legacy of hosting over 200 annual events – including the Japan Tour’s Mitsui Sumitomo Visa Taiheiyo Masters – the Taiheiyo Club represents Japan’s pinnacle of golfing excellence.
With this collaboration, Laguna Lang Co will further commit to delivering world-class experiences for discerning Japanese golfers.
“Laguna Lang Co offers a rich tapestry of experiences that visitors from Japan appreciate. There’s incredible golf, world-class accommodation, culinary delights, entertainment, and cultural immersion,” said Stephen Banks, Director of Golf at Laguna Golf Lang Co, a Facility Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.
He added: “It’s always a pleasure to welcome our Taiheiyo Club friends and guests. Their passion for the game and appreciation for the unique experience we offer make them cherished visitors.”
With the resurgence of direct flights between Danang and Tokyo, facilitated by Vietnam Airlines, Japanese visitors are rediscovering Central Vietnam. Beyond golf, the region’s attractions have diversified to include culinary experiences, luxury resorts, pristine beaches, and cultural landmarks, particularly the historic city of Hue, just an hour north of Laguna Lang Co.
Laguna Lang Co offers Japanese travellers seamless access to Vietnam’s cultural and natural wonders. The resort’s centrepiece is the Sir Nick Faldo Signature golf course, nestled between lush mountains and the pristine East Sea.
The challenging layout has resonated with Taiheiyo Club members, making it a top choice for golfing enthusiasts from Japan.
Complementing the championship golf experience, Laguna Lang Co offers a range of luxurious accommodations, including the award-winning Banyan Tree Lang Co, Angsana Lang Co, and the Laguna Parkside Residences Lang Co. These properties provide comfort and convenience for visitors, creating a complete resort experience.
“The rice, rocks, beach, and buffaloes make Laguna Lang Co a favourite for our members,” said Jiro Nonaka, an executive from Taiheiyo Club. “It’s a truly unique experience that combines Vietnam’s natural charm with the challenge of a world-class golf course.”
Eight years ago, Japanese travellers primarily associated Central Vietnam with its golf courses. Today, the destination has evolved, offering a variety of experiences that appeal to a broader audience. Laguna Lang Co remains at the forefront of this transformation.
